LIFE!!!

Alright!  So the mom has been very neglectful when it comes to writing about me in my blog!  I'm a little disappointed in her for not keeping up with the posts.  However, I know she is disappointed in herself. 

Life has been very busy for ALL of us.  I'm going to try to catch you all up on the happenings.

My last post was in August and boy have I grown!  We'll start with September and work our way to November.

SEPTEMBER -

September The Boy and The Girl went back to school.  So now I get to walk The Girl into her classroom everyday and pick her up.

The Boys football games started so I've been able to go to a couple of those.  It can get pretty loud sometimes and usually there are "goodies" in the stands that tempt me.  I pride myself on the fact that I don't (usually) go after such things.

 In September the club took an outing to the Portland International Airport.  There were all sorts of things for us to experience.  The place is huge!  We all took the Max train to the airport. 

When we arrived we got off and walked to the check in kiosk.  The Girl pretended to "check in".  She was pretty disappointed not being able to check in for reals! 

We made our way to the baggage claim, walked around and then made our way back to the Max train to head for home.  It was pretty cool to see the airport, I think it would be even cooler to actually get on a plane!  Below is a picture of Me and Hoshi and the other one is of Ariba, Hoshi and myself.

OCTOBER -

Was a busy month.  I've been going EVERYWHERE with my raisers.  It was a pretty busy month for The Mom so she didn't take many photos of me.  Just this one where she was messing with me.  She thought it was so funny that I didn't make one move, I froze with my jacket on my head.  I don't know why she does these things to me!

NOVEMBER -

Has been an even busier month.  In October The Mom and her family bought a house and have been working very hard to remodel it so they can move in this month.  The Grandma had surgery on her hand so I'm staying with The Mom, The Girl and The Boy for a long time.  The Mom also had to take a business trip to Seattle so I had to go stay with a puppy sitter.  The folks that puppy sat me were very kind.  They have a career change yellow lab named Dan.  He was a good guy and shared his toys with me.

We all went to a puppy raising work shop out at the Guide Dog campus.  The Mom didn't get any good pictures of the event but there were LOTS of dogs and people. 

The Mom sometimes sits on the floor to work, I usually love to squish behind her and just stay put.  I LOVE touching my people!

The Girl and The Mom took me to The Mom's hair appointment.  Boy was that boring!  BUT I did get a lot of attention and learned that one of the Hair Stylist was going to the Guide Dog Luncheon at The Nines Hotel.  She loved on me a lot!

The Girl needed some Truckee time and ended up falling asleep on my bed one evening!  I'm tellin' ya, The Family has been busy!

The Boy has started wrestling so I've gone to practice with him a few times.  I'm okay with it, I don't do anything naughty BUT it's very hard for me not to get excited when the boys are doing their running drills and coming right at me!  It was actually pretty boring though!

Like I mentioned The Family is trying to move by the end of this month so the house has been a little chaotic with boxes all around.  I usually have to be right with The Mom where ever she is.  So I grab my bone and lay on her boxes until she needs them.  I'm looking forward to the new home and getting to see The Grandma again soon.  I'm headed to another puppy sitter next week while The Family finishes the house and gets moved in. 

The Mom will try to do a better job at keeping the blog current.  Hopefully LIFE will slow down in the near future!

Until Next Time, Wish Me Luck!
